Chapter 24 Zinjo Returns
Everything in the wild stopped as Zinjo entered the camp filled with nervous silence. Zinjo walked until ten feet separated him from Aurelia. His stare still brought out Aurelia's girlish side, and it still made her feel like the only woman on earth. Broken trust does not mend easily. Aurelia approached Zinjo. She walked with the grace and dignity of a regal lioness, as she came within arms reach. She drew her paw back and struck Zinjo with all of her might.
"If you ever do something that stupid again, you and I will have problems, understood?" She glared at him and drew herself up to her full height. Aurelia expected resentment and anger to be in the fierce yellow eyes. Instead, she found undying devotion and affection. "Perhaps I was too harsh," her voice softened against the affectionate gaze of Zinjo. "No, dark princess, you were not. I expected worse," Zinjo rose from his knees, and held out his hRelated chapters

Sophie made the usual outlandish remarks at their leaving for the Cherish Empire. Both Zinjo and Aurelia pretended she wasn't in the room and carried on with their preparations. Aurelia swore she saw quiet pride in her mother's eyes. Aurelia suspected her mother acted this way to encourage Aurelia on to greatness. She made a note to ask her about it when they returned. Like Zinjo, Aurelia now needed clothes that could change shape with her size. The canyons of Litchford Hills seemed less dangerous to Aurelia now, that she could hear and smell the world at large around her. She couldn't hear voices, just the sound of insects and birds who flapped from branch to branch. A couple of hours into the journey, Zinjo dared to approach her. His handsome face and dead serious expression always gave Aurelia a bit of a giggle, "How are you feeling Dark Princess?" His question tested the waters between them.
The Lion of Shadowfen Chapter 26 Redford
The mountains of Litchford hills kept the small band of travelers on their toes. The endless walls of rock, and tufts of thick green moss on stones, banked by pine trees tall enough to touch the sky. Aurelia discovered how much one bite had changed her. For instance, her endurance dramatically increased. They had traveled most of the day without stopping, except for food. They made camp about a day's journey from the Cherish Empire. Redford and Mshindi went off to find some supper. Zinjo looked over at Aurelia and pointed at her swords, "It is time to get familiar with your blade?" The firelight attractively illuminated his fur, Aurelia pulled the scroll from her rucksack. Zinjo shook his head, "You are not there yet," Aurelia shot him a dirty look, "I'll be the judge of that," She stared at the scar where Zinjo bit her. &nb

The Lion of Shadowfen Chapter 28 Illusion
Things can change in a few short months. Nobody knows that better than Aurelia and her companions. The mix-matched a group of royalty and vagabonds trudged across the mountains of Litchford Hills, in search of the evil creature known as Kivuli. Their search brought them to the doorstep of the Cherish Empire, the most powerful nation on the continent. They crossed the border into Cherish without much difficulty. Redford, a brigand and former guard to royalty, grew more and more paranoid the further into Cherish they went. His eyes darted left to right, and he jumped at every person who saw him. "Redford, don't worry," Aurelia hissed, "These people don't know you from a hole in the ground. If you keep acting like a crazy person, you'll bring the guards down on us." She tried to keep a modicum of kindness to ease the frazzled brigands' nerves. Zinjo took a stance next to the
The Lion of Shadowfen Chapter 29 silent music
Dense, thick, and impossible to move through, adequately described the forests of the Cherish empire. The trails themselves were narrow things and made Aurelia wonder how people got around without the aid of roads or horses. Her enhanced hearing kept track of the various noises associated with the forest. Zinjo strode next to her and offered to do some wedding planning to help while away the hours, "I'd like to be dressed in my suit," He declared with dignified words. "Red and black are hardly wedding colors, Zinjo, black and white are more acceptable," Aurelia gave him a playful shove. Should we have it at the castle?" "No," Zinjo shook his head, "We will be spending all of our time in the castle after the wedding is over. I think it would be better to hold it in the town. The people would love it," he argued. The idea was inspired, but the extra securi
The Lion of Shadowfen Chapter 30 Bait and Switch
The forest grew more twisted as Aurelia traveled deeper into the forest. Trees went from upright to gnarled and sickly. The pleasant smell of the pine needles shifted to rotten eggs and decay. Creepiness aside, nothing seemed out of the ordinary. She kept her nose on Zinjo's scent, she didn't care much for Mshindi's. The werehyena smelled like sour berries and something she hadn't encountered before. Her ears caught the stillness of the area. Not a bird sang, and she swore the bugs crawled quieter here Thick cocoons hung in the treetops. Aurelia figured it was from caterpillars, a plague of them ran through Shadowfen one year. The streets were filled with disgusting things, and they left a horrid stink in their wake. Again unusual but not too far out of the wheelhouse of believable. The mystery lay in the music. Each of the men heard music before they crashed through the green foliage and saplings in search

The plan was simple. Redford would approach the waterfall first and see if anyone appeared. His ears would be stuffed with moss to ensure the proper protection against the siren call of whatever they were hunting. Aurelia felt the butterflies in her stomach and every sense sharpened to a razor's edge. Redford stepped on a slime-covered rock and shouted, "Is there anyone home?" his voice bounced off the rock wall and into the forest. He waited five minutes and then shrugged, "Well I suppose I was wrong." He turned to leave when a woman emerged from the waterfall. Long silky black hair trailed behind the athletic body, a colorful robe adorned the body. She moved with seductive grace. Aurelia could see her mouth moving, but no noise came out. Aurelia thanked the goddess Redford had enough sense to stuff his ears with moss. She sniffed the air and it reeked of something
The Lion of Shadowfen Chapter 32 arguments new and old
The sound of the waterfall echoed through the cave. Aurelia brought fresh water for the men who had fallen under the strange spider creature's spell. Mshindi spent much of his time near a small hole, as he emptied his stomach down it. Zinjo proved to be the paralytic venom of Hinata. Since Aurelia found him she refused to let the lion mango. His yellow eyes stared at her with unparalleled affection, and his arms kept her close to his hard body. Her hands felt his strong abdominal muscles expand and contract. The sensation excited her lady parts to no end, but now wasn't the time to explore how much more excited she could get. Redford searched the place and found some bottles of poison. Each was labeled with strange symbols, "I'll assume each of these has a different purpose. Rather a clever creature, augmenting her poison for different uses. I know a merchant who can probably translate them for u
